Summary Ten obligate marine fungi have as their principal fatty acids 160, 180, 181n9 and 182n6. The fatty acids ranged from 14 to 22 carbons, completely dominated by those with even numbers of carbons. The amount of unsaturated fatty acids varied between 35% and 80%. Each isolate contained small amounts of the acids 183n3 and 204n6. Branched, hydroxy- or cyclic fatty acids were not detected. Multivariate statistical, i.e. principal component analysis, showed that all ten strains could be distinguished on the basis of their fatty acid composition. These results indicate that the marine fungi do not have an unusual fatty acid composition and suggest that chemometric, multivariate analysis might be employed to confirm taxonomic relationships among these organisms. 相似文献
Heterozygous alleles are widespread in outcrossing and clonally propagated woody plants. The variation in heterozygosity that underlies population adaptive evolution and phenotypic variation, however, remains largely unknown. Here, we describe a de novo chromosome-level genome assembly of Populus tomentosa, an economic and ecologically important native tree in northern China. By resequencing 302 natural accessions, we determined that the South subpopulation (Pop_S) encompasses the ancestral strains of P. tomentosa, while the Northwest subpopulation (Pop_NW) and Northeast subpopulation (Pop_NE) experienced different selection pressures during population evolution, resulting in significant population differentiation and a decrease in the extent of heterozygosity. Analysis of heterozygous selective sweep regions (HSSR) suggested that selection for lower heterozygosity contributed to the local adaptation of P. tomentosa by dwindling gene expression and genetic load in the Pop_NW and Pop_NE subpopulations. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) revealed that 88 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within 63 genes are associated with nine wood composition traits. Among them, the selection for the homozygous AA allele in PtoARF8 is associated with reductions in cellulose and hemicellulose contents by attenuating PtoARF8 expression, and the increase in lignin content is attributable to the selection for decreases in exon heterozygosity in PtoLOX3 during adaptive evolution of natural populations. This study provides novel insights into allelic variations in heterozygosity associated with adaptive evolution of P. tomentosa in response to the local environment and identifies a series of key genes for wood component traits, thereby facilitating genomic-based breeding of important traits in perennial woody plants. 相似文献
在对新疆及海南岛的捕食线虫真菌的调查中发现2个真菌与已报道的孤孢属的真菌不同,确定为新种——长梗孤孢菌(Monacrosporium longiphorum Liu et Lu sp. nov.)和小舟形孤孢菌(Monacrosporium microscaphoides Liu et Lu sp. nov.)。长梗孤孢菌主要特征为分生孢子梗较长,448-660 μm,分生孢子3-4个分隔,39-65(54) × 13-22(18) μm。小舟形孤孢菌主要特征为孢子较小,0-3个分隔,以2个分隔为主,23-39(29) × 8-15.5(12)μm。在老的培养物中可见球形串生的厚垣孢子。 相似文献
The effects of nine fungicides were evaluated in vitro on the entomopathogenic fungi Beauveria bassiana, Conidiobolus coronatus, C. thromboides, Metarhizium anisopliae, Paecilomyces farinosus, P. fumosoroseus, Scopulariopsis brevicaulis and Verticillium lecanii. The susceptibility of the fungi to the fungicides varied. The dithiocarbamate derivations zineb + copper oxychloride, and mancozeb completely inhibited germination of C. coronatus, C. thromboides, B. bassiana, P. farinosus, M. anisopliae and V. lecanii. The fungicides triadimefon, copper oxychloride, metalaxyl, sulfur, sulfur + nitrothal‐isopropyl and hymexazol exhibited various effects on the fungi. Usually, fungistasis was more pronounced at 15°C than at 25°C and the inhibitory effects were in direct proportion to the dosage of active ingredient (recommended field rate, 10‐fold higher and 10‐fold lower). In a few combinations, fungi partially overcame or even recovered from the initial inhibition of growth which might have resulted from delayed germination. In other cases, inhibition of growth occurred only after a delay and its intensity increased with time. Stimulation of fungal growth when it occurred was rarely permanent. Generally, adverse effects were much greater against the entomophthoraleans C. coronatus and C. thromboides than against the Hyphomycetes. Extrapolation of the results to practice and to the field situation is difficult. Nevertheless, the data presented give an idea of possible side‐effects in nature.相似文献
The degree of protein enrichment of sweet potato residue by different amylolytic moulds in solid-state cultivation was much greater than that obtained using amylolytic yeasts. The optimum initial moisture content for protein enrichment was about 65% (w/w). Adding nitrogen sources to the culture twice (at the start of the incubation and after 24 h) considerably improved the final protein content. A co-culture of amylolytic mycelial fungi yielded a product with 32% (w/w) crude protein after 4 days' incubation at 30°C. In a column reactor, the highest temperatures reached were 42°C and 40°C and the minimum O2 concentrations were 1.5% and 2.5% of full saturation in the central and bottom layers, respectively. 相似文献
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi can form symbiosis with 90% of the vascular plants and play important roles in ecosystem. To realize the AM fungal colonization at different succession stages in saline-alkali land and screen AM fungi species with great functions, roots and soil samples were collected from the three succession stages of Songnen saline-alkali grassland. The soil properties and AM fungal colonization were measured, and the fungus distributed extensively in three stages was annotated by sequencing for AML1/AML2 target, subsequently, maize was selected as the host to verify its colonization. The results showed that the soil properties improved with the succession of saline-alkali grassland. The plants’ communities of the three stages could be colonized by AM fungi, and the colonization rate of Leymus chinensis (the third stage) ranged from 66.67% to 100%, Puccinellia tenuiflora (the second stage) ranged from 50% to 80%, while the Suaeda glauca (the first stage) was only 35%–60%. Glomeraceae sp1 was identified as the dominant AM fungi species which occurred frequently in the succession of saline-alkali land with the isolation frequency, relative abundance, and importance value of 100%, 18.1%, and 59.1%, respectively. The colonization rate of Glomeraceae sp1 in maize ranged from 80% to 87% and similar mycorrhizal characteristics were detected in the roots of P. tenuiflora, S. glauca, and L. chinensis, indicating that Glomeraceae sp1 colonized the samples in the field. The correlation matrix indicated that colonization rate, colonization intensity, and vesicle abundance were closely related to soil conditions most, and they were related significantly to all the soil properties except cellulase activity. Besides, redundancy analysis (RDA) showed that soil properties drove the changes of AM fungal colonization and sporulation. These results will provide theoretical support for realizing the relationship between AM fungal colonization and soil conditions, and also for the exploration of AM fungi species with great functions.
